Cordoba holds 13 quests across six categories, led by History with four — though only just, with three in Food behind it. The one category with nothing in Cordoba so far is Beach. One is tier 1, the tier kept for what a visitor would not have found on their own: Jazz Cafe. It is also the only quest here whose check-in asks for PRO; the other twelve are open on any plan. Tier 3 covers nine of them, which is the label for what a visitor would expect a travel app to have anyway. History here means places where something happened and the ground still shows it, which is also where the famous version and the standing version most often part company. A food quest names the dish rather than the restaurant: the pin sits on the room that serves it, but what you are going for is the plate. Every check-in works the same way: the geotag your camera wrote into the photo has to land within 200 m of the quest's own point. ### By category Each of these opens the whole category across every city, with the Cordoba quests among them. - [History quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/category/history) — four in Cordoba - [Nature quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/category/nature) — two in Cordoba - [Art quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/category/art) — one in Cordoba - [Food quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/category/food) — three in Cordoba - [Sport quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/category/sport) — one in Cordoba - [Party quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/category/party) — two in Cordoba --- Tier 1 ## The unexpected ones The one quests in Cordoba the catalogue files as finds rather than fixtures — the half of a city a guidebook has no room for. - [Jazz Cafe](https://getmap.travel/quests/ChIJ73GetX3fbA0RwUgu2Njns7k) Late-night jazz leaves the monuments behind Party --- Nearby ## Cities near Cordoba Ranked by distance rather than by border, because from here the next useful stop is often the one in the next country. - [Málaga 12 quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/city/es/malaga) - [Faro 8 quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/city/pt/faro) - [Lisbon 12 quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/city/pt/lisbon) - [Bilbao 13 quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/city/es/bilbao) - [Palma 7 quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/city/es/palma) - [Barcelona 12 quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/city/es/barcelona) --- Questions ## About quests in Cordoba ### How many photo quests are there in Cordoba? 13, across six of the seven categories the catalogue uses. The deepest groups are History (4), Food (3) and Nature (2). Nothing in Beach here yet — a category appears in a city the moment a quest is published into it, so the gaps move. Among them: Casa de las Cabezas, Botanical Garden and Julio Romero Museum. ### What is there to do in Cordoba beyond the obvious? One of the 13 quests in Cordoba is tier 1, which is the catalogue's own mark for a find rather than a landmark: the pipeline that writes it is told that tier 3 is "everything a visitor would expect a travel app to have", and that tiers 1 and 2 are "only the unexpected finds". Cordoba holds one at tier 1, three at tier 2 and nine at tier 3. The tier 1 quest here is Jazz Cafe, in Party. ### Can you do all the Cordoba quests on one trip? Yes, given a few days. Every one of the 13 falls within 2.9 km of the middle of the Cordoba list — walking and local transport, not day trips — so this is a list to plan a visit around rather than a reason to extend one. ### Which Cordoba quests can you do for free? 12 of the 13 can be checked in on the free plan, and all 13 can be read and travelled to without paying anything — the catalogue is open signed out, on every plan. PRO covers the check-in on the hardest tier, which in Cordoba means one quest: Jazz Cafe. ### How do I prove I visited a place in Cordoba? Take the photo at the place and upload it. Your browser reads the location the camera wrote into that file and measures it against the quest's own coordinates; inside 200 m the check-in counts. The distance is measured to the point, not to the city: being in Cordoba is not what is checked, and a photo taken across town from Casa de las Cabezas fails exactly the way one taken at home does. A file with no location in it cannot be checked at all, and a photo that has been through a messaging app usually arrives that way — upload the original out of the camera roll rather than a copy someone sent back to you. The Food quests in Cordoba sit on the room where the dish is served rather than on the dish, so that address is what the 200 m is measured from. --- This is the Markdown rendering of https://getmap.travel/quests/city/es/cordoba.
